Did I miss something? Why are people even wondering if it's VR or not?

That's not that unbelievable. Disney is a no fly zone, and so is any stadium with a large event going on.

I'm sure we'll see reset time in an upcoming episode.

The guns are probably not real. They fire some kind of projectile because you could see things hit Ed Harris, but they're not bullets.

AwkwardKnob posted:While watching, I sort of predicted-to-myself that the AI's would start showing signs of Rampancy due to that upgrade giving them access to a "subconscious" of their past experiences. My take was that it was done on purpose by Anthony Hopkins, however, as a sort of petri dish experiment to push their realism and AI qualities outside parameters. The way he talked about Humans having gotten as good as they're going to get pointed me in that direction, and I still felt that way when he gave his little light-hearted excuse about making an occasional mistake to his head programmer. Like, sure dude, you make mistakes all the time...? That takes forever, just Ctrl+A Delete and get them back out there. We're running behind! VendaGoat posted:This is something I would like to discuss. Later in the episode they even outright say that a host can't shoot at a guest.

There's actually an article with some producer quotes that actually answer a few smaller questions people have had. https://editorial.rottentomatoes.com/article/11-rules-of-westworld-hbos-killer-robot-theme-park-series/ Real guns, special bullets. Guests have to sign an extensive liability waiver. They envision Westworld to have been around so long it's basically Disney.

I think the preview before the episode started spoiled something big.

I suppose it's possible the photo is Ford, his dad, and Arnold. But Bernard doesn't see Arnold in it, hence the odd framing with an empty third.

El Jeffe posted:I don't really get this. He goes all "doesn't look like anything" if he sees himself in a photograph? Well, it's just a guess now obviously. But it doesn't seem too crazy to think that if Bernard is indeed a host copy of Arnold, that he's programmed not to notice photos of Arnold. Especially if Ford keeps one sitting on his desk.

Scooter_McCabe posted:Wait, Dolores is the oldest in the park. She is constantly rebuilt so I wouldn't be surprised if she is just a refurbished model running around with a bunch of high techs. Maybe, but the photo is the real evidence.

Scooter_McCabe posted:Abernathy was in the background. So when did Abernathy go down, when did Delores wake up. If so is her awakening happening in the same Bernard/Ford timeline. So we either have 2 or 3 timelines. Dolores in William's story is remembering the early days of the park, and we've also seen Dolores in the present story though possibly only in the first episode or two? (If all this timeline stuff is true, which seems pretty drat likely now.)

Grem posted:Yea, her shirt was spotless even if it wasn't ripped in the initial cutting. Dunno when she put those clothes on, and what the gently caress isn't that church supposed to be under sand in all the timeframes except the very first? Ford has been digging it up for his new story.

I think we may have seen more present day Dolores than expected, and a lot of those weird visions she's having of things appearing and disappearing might just be between the two.

frgildan posted:So I get the feeling that the robot being built in the basement is an Elsie replacement. Someone he can promote and replace Bernard. It would make sense. Elsie's absence excuse has a time limit on it, the Ford we've seen would do something more permanent if that was the plan.

So I guess there was a fair amount after Clementine shot Ed Harris? My DVR cut off.
